Default Geneva: Alfa 4C

Alfa took the wraps off of their latest concept- a sports car that would be more attainable than the stratospheric 8C. This concept is aptly named, the 8C

The stats:

1873 lbs.
200-hp
7-speed dual clutch transmission
0-60 in the 4s

Drop dead sexy

I think this is a great looking car with nice, Elise-like specs. The only questions remaining are will they build it? And how much?

Meh. I wanted the Alfa 2uetto, not an Italian version of a Lotus Elise.

Agreed! The car is nice too.

Define "more attainable than the stratospheric 8C." The 8c was so stratospheric, that could mean this could still still be north of $100k. I would like to see this in the sub $50k bracket.

If they'll produce it, no way will it be below $50K - likely closer to $100K.

I don't see why this car would sell very well.
the elise has pretty much the same specs.

Gorgeous. If it's more liveable as a day driver than the Elise, and more reliable than the Alfas of yore, then I am very interested.

Rumored price is $62k in Europe, so probably less here.
